High compared to hydrogen and helium, low compared to lead, gold and uranium.
Higher mass stars "burn" faster due to the increased pressure in the core.
Elliptical galaxies have an abundance of low mass stars or red dwarfs.
High-mass stars might become black holes, if the remaining matter (after the supernova explosion) is sufficiently large.
The similarities of high-end low-mass stars include their ability to fuse hydrogen and helium at the same time, very short lifetimes, and being incredibly luminous.
They produce light.
There are more low mass stars. this is for two reasons:- # the star forming process generates more low mass stars # High mass stars burn out very quickly and explode as supernovas and thus over time there are less and less of them.
High compared to hydrogen and helium, low compared to lead, gold and uranium.
In a newly formed star cluster stars with low masses must greaty out number stars with high masses. High mass stars are rare and low mass stars are extremely common.
Main Sequence Stars
high mass has shortest life (stars right?)

There are three types of stellar remnants. Low to medium mass stars will become white dwarfs. High mass stars will become neutron stars. Very high mass stars will become black holes.

White dwarf. High mass stars become neutron stars or black holes.
